SELECTED WORKS

A sensory approach

I build visual worlds for brands that live in the details.

The texture of a material. The shape of an object. The way something is used. The hour when the light turns. My work sits between photography, creative direction and brand communication — creating imagery around spaces, objects and products with a quiet attention to what gives each brand its character.

Based in Southeast Asia and rooted in Copenhagen, I work with independent brands, boutique hotels, designers and creative businesses across Scandinavia and Southeast Asia.

Offerings

01

Brand & Product

Still life, product and lifestyle imagery for brands with a strong point of view. From quiet product studies to more lived-in stories, I create imagery for campaigns, launches, websites, editorial and wider brand communication — shaped around the product and the world it belongs to.

02

Hospitality & Spaces

Hotels, interiors and places photographed through atmosphere, light and the details that give them identity. Beyond the space itself, I look for the moments around it — objects, food, people, materials and the way a place is experienced.

03

Content Partnerships

For brands looking for imagery beyond a traditional campaign. A single story, a product launch or an ongoing collaboration — stills and moving image can be shaped around what the brand needs and where the work will live. No fixed packages. Each collaboration takes its own form.

Philosophy

I'm drawn to things made with intention, and to the people and ideas behind them. My approach is intuitive and considered, often led by natural light, materials and the surroundings. The rest depends on the story we're telling.
